obu provides such a friendly environment for all students. the professors make it a point to get to know you as a person and are so kind. i couldn't ask for a better mixture of a biblical education and amazing environment!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
obu will give out tons of scholarships but make sure to try hard in high school and keep those sat and act scores high!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
you are definitely getting your money's worth for the education that you will receive!
Describe the dorm life at your college.
dorm life is my favorite part of college! i can honestly say that i could stay in my room all day long and be completely fine with it because my friends are just down the hall and are always in my room. it's like a huge four year sleepover.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
the food is actually really tasty but after having the same choices for two whole semesters you're going to want to change it up a bit so make sure and sign up for the most bison bucks you can to spend at our convenient store on campus.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
there is so many things to do here! we have three different movie theaters and one of them is only a dollar to see a movie. shawnee also has bowling, roller blading, and a good selection of restaurants. if that's not enough the capital is only 40 minutes away!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
obu is named one of “america’s best value colleges!” i can definitely guarantee you will have the time of your life!!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
there is so many traditions at obu and they are all so fun! for example one is called ring by spring (ladies you'll like this one) guys will usually ask their girlfriend to marry them by spring of their senior year so there's always love in the air! there is also this thing called twirp week and it stands for the woman is required to pay where the girls ask guys out on fun dates. during welcome week freshman are given this beanie that they have to wear throughout welcome week to be identified as freshman and its really fun to be greeted by upperclassmen everywhere you go. the best one is probably this chant that all obu students know. it's called ka-rip and its a bunch of babbling that you have to scream in a huge group when some one calls you out by saying bison go with ka-rip. basically this school is amazing!!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
every student that loves jesus or is even a bit interested in knowing more about all this is going to have such a blast because we are seriously so crazy and wild!!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
there is a club for every type of personality at obu. from the chess and cheese club to muggle quidditch to cab which is a club that puts all kinds of fun productions here.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
i'm currently in the process of pledging and i can say i'm having the time of my life!!! there is no hazing here but we do have to do really funny things and they always have us up and going doing all kinds of things. you will definitely have enough sorority's and fraternity's to choose from!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
it never fails! i'll be walking to class and always see campus police. they are so kind and will help you with anything even jump your car if you're having trouble. there is also no curfew but you can have the comfort of feeling safe at night because there is always more than one security per dorm.
